Hi all Just a little update. Bob's regular vet found a small concussion that seems to have accounted for his peculiar behavior. He was sent home with instructions to limit his out of cage time and to be with him when he was out of the cage to limit his activity. I am pleased to report that he is doing better each day and has started attempting his previous heart stopping antic's. I swear you can watch him figuring out how to get in trouble. Our human Dad has increased the gate size on the ferret play room to prevent any further escapes (hopefully). It seems like just when I think I have outsmarted him he proves me wrong. But all in all I would rather have the little carpet shark being his regular self than the docile ferret he was while sick. I would like to thank everyone for their responses and I am sorry it took me so long to answer some of you. (some of the replys went to the junk file and I don't check it but once a week). Thanks again Kim and the Coffee Creek Gang p.s It was kind of cute watching the little girl ferrets groom him while he was sick. Something he obviously doesn't abide when healthy.
